Cramond

Location: Cramond 

Theme: Boats 

Refreshments: Shhhh! There is a fabulous community café but it isn't very well signposted. I suspect that's deliberate. 

Kate found lots of texture in this old knotted rope 

Mandy found this leading line curving towards Cramond Island 

Vincent nailed the theme! 

Eileen created this beguiling abstract 

Alex missed Cramond, but he shared this image of a kestrel spotted in Musselburgh

Museum of Scottish Fire Heritage

Location - Museum of Scottish Fire Heritage 

Weather - Rain forced us indoors 

Optional theme - None. The original theme of "boats" - intended for Cramond - didn't seem relevant here 

Refreshments - The Edinburgh Central Youth Hostel - welcoming, and with loads of space 

Gotcha - The museum is small, and there was a lot of overlap in the things we photographed; I've tried to minimise this as much as possible. 

Maggie found this abstract in the radiator vents of one of the fire engines

Sandra photographed this magnificent old fire engine 

Alex focused on some of this fire engine's internal workings 

Dorothy shot this detail of a tarpaulin used in fire rescues 

Circles within circles, photographed by Eileen 

Ian found this tiny, toy-like, fire engine
